That's how it was structured yeah. It's kind of funny that the origin itself was driving through Gary Indiana and talking about how bad it sucked. I watched the World of Darkness documentary (free on RUclips btw) and the exact quotes were "This place is BAD. Who would live here??" "Vampires, probably."
You know something is well put together (be it a movie, a song, etc.), when you want to immediately watch/listen to it again to catch what you may have missed the first time around. Well done.
Small note. Vitae isn't all blood. Vitae is the concentrated magic super blood inside of vampires, being thicker, incapable of clotting like normal blood, and is stupidly, stupidly mystically powerful. And corrosive in a metaphysical sense.
Sabbat: Distill the absolute worst aspects of both Camarilla and the Anarchs to get rid of all impurities, and then blend them together into one vile concoction.
Good to see you back from torpor and with a reboot of the VtM iceberg. I thought your old iceberg vids were pretty good but being only a few minutes in to the vid, I see the improvement in quality in this new VtM iceberg vid. Also that V5 shade, 100% tho deserved lol.
Your slander has reached the ears of the République, and they summon you to France. You shall see for yourself that we are not vampires, and that it's all very nice and safe! The flow of tourists must continue...
@@TheCountYT Them again! You shouldn't trust a word they say, they keep posing as vampire hunters, but as we all know vampires don't exist. Surely their insipid, vitamin D deprived blood is making them delirious.
As someone trying to get into VTM and WoD in general this is really helpful and very straightforward!! Also love all the visuals and everything being on the screen. Do you plan on doing something like this for the other games? Would love to see a werewolf version!
The Sabbat breakdown was stellar, possibly the best I've seen on YT. I question giving it such a huge spot in the first chapter though. Sabbat surely is lower on the iceberg, across all metrics, and there's enough of other material to fill in the first spot. Still, thank you for this. Great stuff!
I think the great problem with VtM and the OWoD in general is that it was (and still seemingly is) written by people who are either lacking a central guiding idea or are afraid of their own story. V5 is so miserably stupid, same with W5, with how much it tries to pretend to be nice that it is self refuting on its face. Vampires are monsters, simple as. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy it, am running a game (loosely) based on Kindred: the Embraced right now. But I often find myself rolling my eyes at large parts of the lore changes and sometimes getting deeply frustrated. On the other hand, I often find myself enjoying a lot of the simplifications as it lets new players start pretty quickly and combat flows smoothly (if very, very, punishingly quick). Yet, at the same time, I find that the oversimplification of the disciplines, slow suggested XP rates, and unfortunate tendency for certain picks to just be better (depending on the kind of game you're running) leads to a lot more build convergence. In other words, you get a lot of vamps with similar sheets, no matter how interesting their lore. Doubly so with how limited the Flaws and Merits sections are as White Wolf continues to fail to get things like Resources and minions in general balanced. Never mind Haven dots. More mechanically, none of my players care about Resonance at all - it being essentially wasted space in a pitifully sparse core book - and I deeply, deeply dislike their publishing schedule. IMO, the core book should contain all of the major clans, Tremere, Sabbat, and Anarch, and all of the disciplines. Then each clan can have a clan booklet that goes into detail on them. As is, the corebook itself seems to lack huge amounts of content that really, really should have been in there. It's like if Pathfinder released a core book with only Fighter, Cleric, Rogue, and Ranger!
@TheCountYT the feeding and hunger mechanics are mostly okay... And a few of the banes are better *casually retcons the Hecata and Old Clan Tzimisce to give them back their historic banes while letting the flesh sculptors and Assamites keep their new ones* Seems like it'd be a great set of mechanics and ideas to pull from for homebrewing the perfect system.
It feels like two steps forward and three steps back. Gameplay wise, I think there was some useful streamlining. Also happy with the emphasis on low-level play. Boosting the number of vampires in the world was also a good one. The plagiarism of images, lack of tact when introducing social justice concepts, and watering down of the darker and more unique aspects of the world is something I frown upon.
Call me weird but as someone who started playing in the mid 90s I really like what I’ve seen of the V5 system, especially Hunter. Haven’t played it yet, so maybe it’ll drastically change when I do, but mechanically I like what I’ve seen.
V5 isn’t the mature version of OWOD. It’s more like kids dressing up in their parents’ clothes. Some of the rules, like the hunger mechanics, are arguably better, but it’s trying too hard to be sophisticated and less “edgy” in its meta narrative. In reality it’s just tamer, not more mature.
I agree with you 10,000%. I also feel like V5 is designed for a very small scale, "intimate" sort of game. To me it seems like a BIG chunk of play time would be devoted to feeding, which is great for newer groups, but it might come across as boring to veteran players.
As a player and ST Who started during revised edition, I have to disagree depending on your meaning. V5 is more mature in the sense it helps push the core characteristics of story, which is what the game is about. It pushes mastering the basics of smaller scale and more relatable aspects of WOD that story is much easier to manage within generally, especially for newer players which is what it has done a great job of bringing in. Aswell as improving rules like hunger. Previous editions made it much more easy for players and ST's alike to get lost in the fantasy and/or plot while their games story was less understood. In V5, groups that are ready for larger scale (stakes! Hehe, nudge nudge) games, or games that deal with darker subject matter, will not have an issue making the game work for their story using the 1st and golden rule of WOD since the beginning. Make it your own. If a group lacks the creativity and awareness to use that rule in this instance, then there is a good chance they lack the maturity and awareness to handle playing Sabbat or elders well.
@@ThisisnotTwitter You can tell what kind of player you are and that you kick out people who don't agree with you are are OG of WoD. The WoD 5th is shallow, weak, and more worried about feeling then gothic horror. Anyone who uses the word "mature" to describe a TTRPG. Is intentionally using it as a way to insult the game and gamers who played it. People like you are the reason WoD 5th edition is such a shit show. It could be a great game.
Old WOD is the name of the setting. As far as i know, 5e takes place in that same universe, just in our modern times. Requiem & etc are it's own continuity, so not part of the OWOD.
Yep, though it's led to some confusion that resulted in V5 being called New WoD and that kind of just sticking. Technically CoD could be called NWoD, but that take will generally result in everyone around you acting like the Garou during the War of Rage...
Short answer: kinda yah. ☝️🤓 answer: Blood turns into Vitae when consumed by a v, but a thinblooded/young vamp regularly using Blush of Life could most likely harbor enough blood to give em diabetes
Generally speaking a vampire's death results in it's body aging to its true Chronological age, Hence ancient vampires poofing into dust upon final death while younger vampires turn into rotten/preserved corpses. Though, sunlight/diablerie almosy always results in dust
The Sabbat are so fucking insane lmao Now I wanna play as a member of their unhinged sect 😔 Thank you for making this video and for using official VtM art. I really like the style of these drawings and pictures.
Anyone wanna come dogtagging in Australia? Saw a bunch of Red Talons trashing the local water reservoir and I reckon they'll make for some nice marks...
Man, gotta say, I can tell you've only played tabletop with small, inexperienced groups. If you want to learn more about the setting - especially how certain words are pronounced - get into a good-sized LARP group that's been around awhile. It's also obvious you like the idea of the Sabbat - there's a lot of people out there who've been playing since the '90s who fucking *LOVE* playing Sabbat. I bet you can find some good people to talk to.
@@TheCountYT LOL! I realize that may have come across much more denigrating than I intended, and I apologize. Just some of your pronunciations took me back to when I first started playing back when I was 15 - and I'm 42 now. 🤣 It was a very good video.
Camarilla - La Cosa Nostra Sabbat - Vampire IRA Anarchs - all the rest of vampire society; Sons of Anarchy & Mayans & 1-9'ers etc. Thin-Bloods - outcast untouchables, edgewalkers, and underdogs
The "Blush of Life" allows vampires to temporarily 'regain' their biological autonomy, which brings back their pulse, organ function, allows them to breath and blink, etc.. Not all vampires use it to great (or even good) effect, but those who regularly train and maintain the BoL, well you could imagine the benefits lol
Not all microbes need living cells to parasitize in order to live. A lot of bacteria that cause diseases in humans can live quite well on a metal surface or the bottom of the ocean, they just find the inside of some parts of the human body a nice place to hang. Incidently the human body provides then food so sometimes they destroy stuff that you really need, or the bacteria excrete something which is poisonous to us. As for viruses: the stomach of a vampire pulses at all times with fresh blood. If a vampire feeds on two different people within a few hours or days, the vampire might pass on a disease from one person to another. Also, some viruses are able to crystallize themselves (yes, this is crazy!) and thus exist without a host for millennia until it finds itself inside a proper host again.
I really like this video, but I disagree with your assessment. The Old World of Darkness DEFINITELY had aspects of intrigue, conspiracy, personal horror, etc. I would rather define the new edition as less edgy, more politically correct, more sentimental and "artsy" with awful lore changes. I don't like it either, but it definitely didn't bring the idea of intrigue into VtM - and intrigue and conspiracy in VtM are definitely not bad aspects.
tru, who knows why i scripted it that way lol. regardless of what i say people will still come to the conclusion that most of current/new wod still (mostly) sucks
@@TheCountYT It's all good :D Yeah, it definitely sucks, like the most horrible Kiss. And this is coming from a guy who was first introduced to Bloodlines, then V5, and only recently V20/V4.
@@TheCountYT hehe well a certain goth Cappadocian from that game is still alive in modern nights and is in the v5 Hecate book so she is fully cannon now lol
